In the original snooker game (not the arcade), would it be possible to change the rule when a player requests his/her opponent to take another shot after a foul?

It's just like proffesional snooker: when a second shot is requested, all the balls are re-spotted to the previous position for the second attempt of the player. Instead of continuing play from the secondary position.

It would be handy if it was optional but i doubt it would work. just wondered how it would work this way.

In time mate you will realise there are quite a few rules not implemented in the game yet...

Free shot
Touching ball
Retake from original position
3 foul rule

to name but a few.

They will come in time, when i cant say but they will come.

Looking forward to seeing them. Makes the game more realistic.
